The High Priests of Amun

(Thanks to Sesen and Rozette for some of
these)

I have attempted to provide some references for these officials. This
is not meant to be a thorough bibliography (alas, not enough time..)
but an attempt to show at least some places where the existence of
these individuals is attested.

18th dynasty

Thuty:First Prophet of Amun and
Overseer of the treasurers. Time of Ahmose. From funerary cone in the
Metropolitan Museum. The cone is inscribed for “The First Prophet of
Amun and Overseer of Treasurers, Thuty The funerary cones make mention
of “The good God Neb-pehty-Re (Ahmose) (The Scepter of Egypt II, by W. C. Hayes
pg 44 and 59.)

Minmontu
: Known from a funerary cone from Thebes. UC37666.
Temp Ahmose.
A heart scarab of Minmontu called Senres is in the collection of the
Kunsthistorisches Museum."The owner of this jadeite
heart scarab was one of the first high priests of Amun of Karnak. His
name was Min-Montu, and he was called Senres, meaning "The brother has
awakened again". It seems likely that an older brother died before his
birth and his parents recognised their dead child in the new-born. He
lived during the reign of the first king of the 18th Dynasty, Ahmose.
The underside is inscribed with the heart spell." Text from the

Menkheperraseneb
(I), High priest of Amun, Temp. Tuthmosis III (Possibly TT 86?).
Possibly the uncle of Menkheperreseneb II? It was assumed up
until recently (1990s ?) that there was one High Priest of Amun with
the name of Menkheperraseneb. It was assumed that this individual had
two Theban tombs (TT86 and TT112). There is a precenence for people
with two tomb (Senenmut - favorite of Hatshepsut - for instance).
Recently it seems to have become more widely accepted that there were
two High Priests with the same name.

Meryptah,
First prophet
of Amen, etc., Temp Amenhotep III. Known from a statue mentioning
Meryptah with Anen, Amenemhat and Si-Mut who were 2nd, 3rd and 4th

and served until the end
of the reign of Amenhotep III. Meryptah would have served from
ca. year 20 of Amenhotep's reign until the end of that reign.Meryptah was granted burial in Thebes
(Qurna). Some funerary items were recovered from a pit excavated in the
early 19th century.

titles of Chief of the Harem of

Nebwenenef is shown followed by a fan-bearer appearing before Rameses
II and (Merymut) Nefertari in a palace window. Nebwenenef is being
appointed as High priest of Amun (year 1 of Rameses II). Before being
appointed High Priest of Amun, Nebwenenef was High Priest of Hathor at
Dendera and High Priest of Anhur at Thinis. After his appointment as
High Priest of Amun, his son Sementawy became High Priest of HAthor.
This post had apparently always been held by his family.
Nebwnenef's tomb is discussed on the website maintained by the Universities
of Heidelberg and Leipzig.
Nebwenenef was also the owner of a mortuary temple at Thebes.
Nebwenenef is one of only a select group of commoners who were allowed
to construct a temple here. A plan of the temple as well as some

from a

temple of Deir el-Bahari for instance.FromTopographical

statue of (Pa)Rahotep. On the statue, Rahotep's father the High priest
of Ptah Pahemnetjer is shown with "his brother" Minmose, High priest of
Amun. It is not clear to me if Minmose is a "brother" of Rahotep, or of
Pahemnetjer. The name of Minmose is translated as Amsu-mose, but
the hieroglyphs used are the same as those that are translated as
Minmose.
This statue is mentioned in: Proceedings
of the Society of Biblical Archaeology; v.14 (1891-92)Hori : High Priest of
Amun.
Traditionally this High Priest is placed at the end of the 19th
dynasty. Pammiger argues that Hori must date to the reign of Ramesses
II (more precisely ca year 24). Hori is known to have had a son, the lieutenant-commander of chariotry, Kanakht.Pammiger, P., Hori, Hoherpriester des Amun,

Ramessesnakht, High priest of Amun, Temp. Ramesses
IV - Ramesses IX Tomb: TT 293.
Father: Merubaste (Chief Steward of the Lord of the Two Lands)
Ramessesnakht was married to Adjedet-Aat and had at least two sons:
Nebamun and Amenhotep, and a daughter Tamerit. Tamerit was married to
the Third Prophet of Amun, Amenemope and is identified as the daughter
of Ramessesnakht and Adjedet-Aat in Amenemope's tomb (TT148).
Ramessesnakht's wife was the daughter of the First Prophet of Nekhbet
named Setau in El Kab. Ramessesnakht is depicted in Setau's tomb in El
Kab. (see osirisnet)
It is known that Ramessesnakht went on a quarrying expedition to the
Wadi Hammamat during the reign of Ramesses IV and secured gold and
galena (for eye paint) under Ramesses VII and IX. (f.i. Chapter 2 of Egyptian Historical Inscriptions of the
Twentieth Dynasty by A. J. Peden.) Ramessesnakht was buried
during the reign of Ramesses IX.
Rock cut stela in the Wadi Hammamat record expeditions. In year 3 of
Ramesses IV the High Priest Ramessesnakht lead an expedition consisting
of some 8,368 men including a fully organized division of the Egyptian
army (The Scepter of Egypt II, by W.
C. Hayes pg.371)Amenhotep, The vizier, great confidante of his
mater, first prophet of Amun-resonther, Ramses IX - XI.
Son of Ramessesnakht.
During the reign of Ramesses XI, the Viceroy of Nubia attacked Thebes
to restore order. Paneshy besieged the high priest at the fortified
temple of Medinet Habu. It is not known if the High Priest, Amenhotep,
survived this attack.
